About this property

Great location! The Benjamin on Franklin is walking distance to train, bars, restaurants & shops. "Benji" is the newest sister property to popular "Minty" (Araminta on Thames) in Newport, RI. The Riverside unit and Saugatuck unit are now available for short term rentals. Riverside is on 1st floor, has 2 bedrooms, LR, eat in kitchen and patio and porch. 4 guests maximum and sleeping on the couch is not allowed.
Other things to note…
The pros:

The Benjamin on Franklin is close to everything…shops, bars, restaurants, train, water sports.

Everything is brand new as of 12/22 (furniture, linens, lighting, kitchen items including glassware and utensils, etc.)

Front and back porch/patio are cool spots for sipping cocktails or coffee.

No need for a car if you don’t want to drive because everything is walking distance but plenty of parking if you do have cars.

Ability to rent both units for a larger group.

The cons (every property has them):

Close to 95. Like really close. However, once inside the house you won’t hear the traffic because of the brand new windows throughout.

The kitchens are compact but tables to eat in. Great for preparing and enjoying quick casual meals.

No smoking. No animals. No exceptions so PLEASE do not ask. My own poodle, a service animal, isn’t even allowed there because our guests expect an animal free environment.

Nightly rates are:

Riverside (2 bedroom) on main level: $168/night (sleeps 4)

Saugatuck (1 bedroom plus queen sleeper sofa) on 2nd floor: $125-$150/night
(Sleeps 4)

Rent both (with interior access option so feels like one unit) for larger groups : $375/night

Saugatuck

Very clean and comfortable with new appliances throughout. A little closer to I-95 than I would have liked and a constant drone of traffic whenever we had windows open. Communication with owner was first class. Guests upstairs were a tad heavy footed when moving about. Overall a pleasant stay though.

Just Right!

Our stay was exactly what we needed to spend a restful few days visiting with our family in Westport. The cottage was spotless and most comfortable, and had everything we could have needed. The neighborhood was walkable and offered a selection of wonderful restaurants. Our hostess dropped by for a visit to make sure we were happy. We hope to stay here again.
